The practice of law is not an exercise in isolationism and introversion, but is instead a profession built substantially on collegiality and relationship building. Although it is often easier for an associate to view his or her office as the comfortable cave for a day’s hibernation, where the outside world and the remainder of the firm can be shut out with the mere close of a door, sometimes it is vitally important to leave the door open, even if it just a small crack.
The help that finds its way through that slight opening can be exponentially more important than the closed-off mountain of work being tackled on the other end. Granted, there are plenty of times where a silent and secluded workspace is necessary for proper work product, but there are always exceptions to this rule.
